I was in NYC for a few days for meetings and couldn't get to my regular podiatrist to have my ingrown toenail cut out before leaving. I have had problems with ingrown nails since I was 17 and have had both the expensive surgery and the light cut out done with a clipper and w/o numbing/anesthesia. I called Dr. Fuzaylov's office to get the ingrown toenail on my third toe removed with clipping and he insisted that he needed to do a $300 procedure under Anesthesia. I explained that my podiatrist did this for $40. The office person rudely responded: ""Then why you calling here?! Just go to your doctor!""
This was the rudest I have ever been treated by a doctor's office. The person did not care about my situation, being from out of town and trying to conduct work with a painful ingrown that I knew could be taken care of easily. He was only trying to make a quick buck.
